HIMSS: Rauland-Borg to showcase Versus' RTLS

Rauland-Borg (Booth #5603) will showcase the system integration of Versus Technology’s real time locating system (RTLS) to Rauland’s Responder 5 Nurse Call at the HIMSS10 conference March 1-3 in Atlanta.

The integration allows hospitals to communicate by minimizing data entry and automating tasks such as patient call cancellation, according to the Traverse City, Mich.-based Versus.

With Responder 5, hospitals can increase the nurse-to-patient ratio and adding RTLS to reduce the number of steps required for a nurse to cancel the patient call, increasing response times, nurse mobility and communication, the company stated.
